About

Dave has been crafting puzzle and code based ‘missions’ for his kids since they were small. But it wasn’t until he did his first Escape room (while on vacation with friends) that he realized people made these experiences for grown ups! From there, he met Krista and they dove into the wider world of Puzzled Pints & puzzle hunts, tabletop escape games and challenges … the ever-expanding universe of confounding adventures has become their world (in addition to being the vehicle for his proposal and a featured component of their wedding). Outside of that, he likes to be outside, growing things at home and exploring the world abroad!

Immersia Escape Games - "The St-Onge Case: Weekend at the Shack 2"

Ten years ago, Philippe St-Onge took the lives of three of your friends during what was supposed to be a carefree getaway. Now he’s locked away…but your old friend Alex has discovered the secret location of his prison and is bent on revenge. Against your better judgment, you agree to help, hoping not to relive the trauma of that fateful night. But once inside, it’s clear that the shadows of the past aren’t done with you yet.

Thames & Kosmos - "Spy Labs: Digital Snake Scope"

The Digital Snake Scope isn’t a “story-driven” experience or game in itself, but rather a tool you can bring into your own adventures. Think of it as spy gear waiting for a mission: a gadget you can deploy when designing your own mystery, crafting a kid-friendly secret op, or even doing some grown-up snooping (the legal kind).

Immersia Escape Games - "Circus of the Lost Souls"

After having been long abandoned, the legendary Filioni Circus has reopened its tent flaps, but something feels…off under the big top. Once known for dazzling performances and fantastic feats, the troupe met a tragic end when their final show went horribly wrong. Now, the circus seems to dance under the spell of a mysterious mentalist. Will you be able to help the poor souls of the circus, or will you succumb to the same fate?
